No, it doesn't.

I mean, in the Thunder game, they tried it again in the third quarter and it was sniffed out immediately.

I, you know, like obviously posting up cat is not like she said, smart.

He's turning it over.

Danny Chow just wrote a great piece on the ringer.com about this cat is turning the ball over 25% of the time on post-ups.

That's not a good number.

And I think like,

you know, it was really interesting to watch last night's game without Brunson.

And, you know, he had like a triple double 11 assists and they played through him and he was making quick decisions.

And there were, there were a bunch of, you know, really ugly turnovers for sure.

He fell out of bounds once trying to drive baseline.

He does that every game for sure.

I just thought that was like a, cause like when I, before the season started, when they hired Mike Brown, I thought that,

Karl-Anthony Towns is going to be used like DeMontis Sabonis, like in a similar vein, playing through him on the perimeter, dribble handoffs, elbow work, surveying the floor from the elbow.

And that just hasn't been how they wanted to play, largely because it doesn't accentuate Jalen Brunson, I don't think.

But last night you saw that, and I'm not saying that that's an answer at all, but it was just interesting to see Towns act that way and then play through him in a game where their offense was, by and large, very good.

Their defense was terrible, but...

And they played against a team that doesn't start a center, which was a factor.

And is tanking.

And is tanking, yes, of course.
